Steel Mart supplies Wire Rods. Steel Mart is an ISO 9001-2000 certified company. Wire rod is a rolled alloy or non-alloy steel product, produced from a semi [e.G. Bloom] and having a round, rectangular or other cross-section. Particularly, fine cross-sections may be achieved by subsequent cold forming [drawing]. The wire rod is wound into coils and transported in this form. The value of steel products is in particular reduced by the effects of corrosion and mechanical damage. In the case of hot-rolled steel, it has to be stored and transported with enough protection against rain, etc. Protection should also be provided from seawater or chemical residues. High-grade wires [e.G. Pre-stretched wire or pre-stressed concrete wire] should be protected from all kinds of corrosion by selecting the correct packaging, warehousing and means of transport.

Wire rods are used for many different products. Depending upon how it is cold formed and heat treated, wire is used, for example, to produce not only wire ropes, barbed wire, wire mesh and nails, but also springs, welded wire mesh and reinforcement wire.
